Motocaddy upgrades EuroPro Tour prize package

It has recently been announced that for the twelfth consecutive season, Motocaddy will be the ‘Official Electric Trolley’ of the PGA EuroPro Tour.

The renewed partnership will see Motocaddy upgrade the prize presented to the winner of all 16 events this season to its featured-packed S3 PRO electric trolley (worth £499.99).

“Motocaddy has been a great supporter of the Tour during its growth over the last 12 years,” said EuroPro Tour Managing Director Eddie Hearn.
He added: “Having the UK’s leading trolley brand as a sponsor for so long say’s a lot about our partnership and upgrading the winner’s prize is a great incentive for the players.”

Kevin Chappell is sticking with Nike

Kevin Chappell got the monkey off his back at the Valero Texas Open, winning his first PGA Tour in 180 starts.

Have you ever wondered what happens to the thousands of golf balls that are lost around the globe? This is probably one answer you didn’t expect.

According to CNN, McCain Foods USA is recalling 2-pound bags of roundy’s brand frozen southern style hash browns as they may contain components of golf balls.

The recall notice on the US Food & Drug Administration site says the hash browns could be “contaminated with extraneous golf ball materials” that “may have been inadvertently harvested with potatoes used to make this product.”
